With Mother's Day right around the corner, it's time to think of ways to pamper Mom and show her that you care.

A visit to the spa? Breakfast in bed? A framed family picture? Or how about an evening watching Kate Winslet and Josh Brolin tell a beautiful story right on her own television screen? Maybe with homemade peach pie a la mode?

That last one is easily possible now with today's release of Labor Day on Blu-ray Combo Pack!

Deemed "a romance to root for" by Elle and praised as "deeply touching" in the New York Observer, Labor Day is available today, April 29th, 2014, on Blu-ray, DVD and On Demand, just in time to be a perfect Mother's Day gift.

Featuring behind-the-scenes footage, deleted scenes and more, this endearing love story is based on the New York Times best-selling novel by Joyce Maynard. This tale centers on 13-year-old Henry Wheeler, who struggles to be the man of his house and care for his reclusive mother Adele while confronting all the pangs of adolescence.

On a back-to-school shopping trip, Henry and his mother encounter Frank Chambers, a man both intimidating and clearly in need of help, who convinces them to take him into their home and later is revealed to be an escaped convict. The events of this long Labor Day weekend will shape them for the rest of their lives.

Who doesn't love a heartwarming, tearjerker every now and again? Not to mention the important, deeply touching lessons and morals that this story portrays?

The Labor Day Blu-ray Combo Pack also includes access to a Digital HD copy of the film as well as the following:

My grandmother's peach pie, she was born in 1894 and grew her own peaches. She made pies, cobblers and preserves. I am certain the wasn't another lady on earth that could bake like her and I miss that to this day.
